    Thank you. I had a good time, made it through 12 hours of cooking
    relatively sane. A new first, and I hear I did pretty well.

    Thanks. My father did a really good job on the turkey this year, (He uses a method of mine termed "low and slow" and it was wonderful this time) and
    then we all got in the car to go see (well, in my case hear, more on that in
    a moment) Life of Pi. Worth seeing. They told my dad on the phone they had descriptive video, but when we got there they didn't, which was a bit frustrating, but it was still an interesting movie that left things to talk about afterward. I'll probably catch it again with someplace with
    descriptive working.

    My wife read (well, as in your case, heard) the book, and refused to
    go to the movie. Just too gross for her tastes...

    That's not a word I'd use to describe the movie. A lot of yelling, though.

    You'll love it. There are interesting shamanic aspects to it, for one thing, and it says some interesting things about spirituality, too.

    Yeah, that's on my list, but since one of the "second run" houses has a reissue of Finding Nemo with descriptive, I'm going to try to catch that
    next.

    Well scripted and well acted but the story was bizzare even for someone
    who takes past lives as an acceptable hypothesis. It jumps and jumps
    and jumps so it's very easy to get lost watching it.

    We found it Sunday at our local (for "local" =3D 30 miles) last-chance
    house. It certainly requires more attention to be paid to it than most
    films do, but we didn't find it all that difficult. (What I find
    difficult to understand is that I seem to be the only person to see
    the resemblance to "Intolerance".)

    Sorry, been busy...

    I won't go into the story in the book, but there are some graphic
    scenes of animals eating animals, child abuse and other fun activities
    in the book which I suspect will not be included in the movie!
